Dear All, discussing with a statistician of a pharmaceutical company I received this answer about the statistical package that I have planned to use: As R is not a validated software package, we would like to ask if it would rather be possible for you to use SAS, SPSS or another approved statistical software system. Could someone suggest me a 'polite' answer? TIA Giovanni -- dr.

Last week Giovanni Parrinello posted a message asking why various packages were loaded when he loaded an .Rdata file. Brian Ripley replied saying he thought it was because the saved workspace contained a reference to the namespace of ipred. (Correspondence copied below). This begs the question: how did the reference to the namespace of ipred come to be in the .Rdata file? Brian did say it is

Dear R Fellow-Travellers: What is your recommended way of dealing with a left-censored response (non-detects) in (linear Gaussian) mixed effects models? Specifics: Response is a numeric positive measurement (of volume, actually); but when it falls below some unknown and slightly random value (depending on how the sample is prepared and measured), it cannot be measured and is recorded as 0.

Hi, I've been banging my head against the following problem for a while and thought the fine people on r-help might be able to help. I'm using the survival package. I'm studying the survival rate of a population with a preexisting linear-like event rate (there are theoretical reasons to believe it's linear, but of course it's subject to the usual sampling noise) Some of the

Dear all, I use the Andersen plot to check for proportional hazards assumption for a factor (say x) in the Cox regression model and obtained a straight line that pass through the origin. However, the formal test done by the R-function cox.zph, which is based on the plot of Schonefeld residuals against time, indicates that proportional hazards assumption is violated. Further, a plot of the score

Dear All, Sorry to bother you again. I have a model: coxfita=coxph(Surv(rem.Remtime/365,rem.Rcens)~all.sex,data=nearma) and I'm trying to do a plot of Schoenfeld residuals using the code: plot(cox.zph(coxfita)) abline(h=0,lty=3) The error message I get is: Error in plot.window(...) : need finite 'ylim' values In addition: Warning messages: 1: In sqrt(x$var[i, i] * seval) : NaNs

hi sorry if this has been discussed before, but I'm wondering why the scaled Schoenfeld residuals do not follow the defining formula for obtaining them from the ordinary Schoenfeld residuals, but are instead offset by the estimated parameter values. e.g. library(survival) attach(ovarian) sv<-Surv(futime,fustat) f1<-coxph(sv~age+ecog.ps) f1

Dear list: I am attempting to use what I thought would be a pretty straightforward practical application of Cox regression. I figure users of the survival package must have come across this problem before, so I would like to ask you how you dealt with it. I have set up an illustrative example and included it at the end of this post. I took a sample of 100 data points from each of two populations

Dear all, I have a question concerning the p-value. When running coxph I get a p-value = 0. :confused: Can this be true? Why aren?t there decimal points? Is there a way to find out the exact p-value? Here is the output: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call: coxph(formula = Surv(start, stop, status) ~ Albumin_gproL, data = dial,

Hello to All. I'd want to use a one-way ANOVA. This means that I have only one factor, with, lets say, 5 levels. I made a dataframe, called "DATA", with two Columns: A, that is my response, and it is "class numerical". B, that defines the different levels of my factor, and it is "class factor". If I want to use a fixed effect model, I know that the formula I have
